A Body in Seaview Grange: A Kate Palmer Mystery (Book 2)

Practice nurse Kate Palmer was really looking forward to spending her retirement in a Cornish village, but things haven’t quite gone to plan. Lavender Cottage, which she moved into with her sister Angie, needs substantial repairs while her sister’s fondness for gin is stretching the purse strings. When Kate is asked to do some nursing at the luxury retirement flats in Seaview Grange, she jumps at the chance. The old Victorian house has stunning views of the sea and the retirees are a decent, peaceful bunch…until glamorous ex-opera singer Edina Martinelli is found poisoned in her home! Edina’s death is ruled an overdose by Digoxin, the drug she had been taking for years. But Kate is certain the woman she met was anything but suicidal. With the reputation of her practice on the line, Kate rolls up her sleeves to do some investigating of her own. Luckily she can rely on newly retired Detective Inspector Woody Forrest to help out and it isn’t long before the sleuthing duo uncover evidence of foul play. Solving the crime won’t be easy as there’s a long list of suspects to plough through. Was Edina killed by the besotted vicar? The ill-tempered stepson? Or did her neighbour do her in because she’d had enough of her constant “singing”? Everyone had a motive but which one had a stomach for murder? And will they kill again?
